League One - 2023/24

[Grecian in Guzz]

I was hoping Luton would have done the decent thing and
loaned us Taylor after the Debacle of Muskwe .

...... or given OGbene back !

Norfolk enchants

Ogbene's a good case in point whilst discussing our young loanees. Nothing overly special whilst playing for us, one day we'll turn on MotD and there will be Trevitt or Rankine, White or Harris tearing it up in the Premiership

And we'll be like .

The EFL seem to be rushing through the L1 play offs
I guess it gives them more time to shift the Wembley tickets ?

Depending when the other divisional play- off are they probably want all domestic competitions done and dusted before the Euros which start in early June i guess.

Especially if the POFs could be subject to postponement due to international call ups

League One Play-Off Final

Isn't that just the usual formula, except that the final is on the Saturday rather than the Sunday or a Bank Holiday Monday ? Play offs start the weekend after the season finishes. And there is a 10 day gap between the last play off semi and the final? Three weeks for three games doesn't seem that hasty- it is 21 days from last league game (27 April) to play-off final compared to 22 and 23 days for the two play off finals we had in the years just before Covid.

I guess so it just looked more compact with the Championship playing a week later

League 1 and League 2 are a whole weekend before the bank holiday

Thanks to UEFA who host the CL Final at Wembley June 1st , refusing to let the EFL use Wembley on Holiday Monday the 27th (They need 6 days to brand the stadium)

Yes, but it's not the play offs that have been rushed (as was claimed in post 1725) , it's the league season, finishing in April and not May. The decision about the play off dates has been coming ever since the announcement of the league 1 and league 2 season ending a week earlier than the Championship.
